Intergem at Henry B. this weekend

Notice that change in the temperature lately? It’s the start of bead show season in San Antonio! (You thought I was going to say “fall.” 🙂

There will be bead shows in San Antonio or close by for the next few weekends, starting with the International Gem & Jewelry Show this weekend at downtown’s Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, 200 E. Market St. (map).

Hours are noon to 6 p.m. today, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. Admission is $8, and is good for all three days. Intergem has also recently enacted a new show policy: no children eight years old or younger … so be sure to find a non-beader for a babysitter!

If you can’t make it to this show, be sure to check Strung Out’s 2010 Texas bead show calendar for all the shows coming to San Antonio and Texas through the end of the year. I’ve started working on the 2011 bead show calendar … look for that around Dec. 1.
